There are 9 separate sheets with each one focussing on a different aspect of Mori customary belief. The first two sheets look at history relating to Ngti Hmua starting with the creation myth and the Maori gods (Nga Atua). The second sheet (Tupuna) looks at the Ngti Hmua ancestors that have some link to the Wairarapa including Maui – who fished up Aotearoa, Kupe – the first explorer to these shores, Whtonga aboard the Kurahaup waka and his descendants. The remaining sheets describe the values, practices or uses that Ngti Hmua applied to their environment in the Wairarapa valleys, plains, mountains, waterways and coastal areas. The recording of this information was undertaken so that people from all backgrounds can gain an appreciation of the awareness that the kaumtua of Ngti Hmua have of the natural world. Rangitne o Wairarapa and Greater Wellington Regional Council are pleased to present this information to the people of the Wairarapa and beyond.

  • The Role of Cultural Diffusion in Creating Kiwi Culture: the Role of Rugby
    The Role of Cultural Diffusion in Creating Kiwi Culture: The Role of Rugby . Forms of Cultural Diffusion . Spread of Rugby . Combining Cultures Cultural diffusion . Spatial spread of learned ideas, innovations, and attitudes. Each cultural element originates in one or more places and then spreads. Some spread widely, others remain confined to an area of origin. Barriers to diffusion . Absorbing barriers completely halt diffusion. Can be political, economic, cultural, technological . More commonly barriers are permeable, allowing part of the innovation wave to diffuse, but acting to weaken and retard the continued spread. Expansion diffusion . Culture/Ideas spread throughout a population from area to area. Subtypes: 1. Hierarchical diffusion: ideas leapfrog from one node to another temporarily bypassing some 2. Contagious diffusion: wavelike, like disease 3. Stimulus diffusion: specific trait rejected, but idea accepted 4.

  • Understanding Whangara: Whale Rider As Simulacrum Brendan Hokowhitu
    ARTICLE: Understanding Whangara: Whale Rider as Simulacrum Brendan Hokowhitu For those with neither pen nor sword, the movie camera has proven a mighty instrument. For centuries, colonized aboriginal people depended upon oral tradition to preserve their language and creation stories – the pith and marrow of every culture – but with the advent of the 20th century and documentary films like Robert Flaherty’s ‘Nanook of the North’ and ‘Moana’, a new medium emerged to champion their cause. Now filmmakers are turning from the documentary depiction of these indigenous cultures to their languages and creation myths, furthering a cinematic tradition and exploring an entirely new genre (Garcia 2003a: 16) Ulrich Koch’s 1998 film The Saltmen of Tibet, which ethnographically chronicled the spiritual journey re-enacted each year by Tibetan nomads “marked a turning point” (Garcia 2003a: 16) in film production because of its anthropological intent. That is, the film attempted to explain in a text understandable to a western audience, the complexities, mores and customs of an-‘other’ culture. Many films with similar ethnographic underpinnings followed, such as Zacharias Kunuk’s (2001) Atanarjuat (The Fast Runner), Phillip Noyce’s (2002) Rabbit Proof Fence and Niki Caro’s (2003) Whale Rider, to the extent that these films and others of the same ilk have clustered to form an increasingly popular genre. The growing attention and curiosity of the global film audience with the indigenous subject is, thus, a phenomenon worthy of investigation. Often indigenous films are referred to as sites of resistance, where indigenous groups are able to maintain their autonomy in the age of globalisation.
